CHOOSE THE BEST ANSWERS In a population of cows, a single gene controls hair type. The curly hair allele (H) shows incomplete dominance with the straight hair allele (h). The hair of heterozygous individuals (Hh) is wavy. Another gene controls coat color. The red (R) and white (r) alleles are co-dominant. The coloring of heterozygous individuals (Rr) is called roan . After breeding a wavy, roan bull with several wavy, roan females, you observed the following phenotypic ratio in the offspring: 8 curly, red : 16 wavy, roan : 7 straight, white Part 1: Based on this observed ratio, are the two genes linked? Part 2: If they are linked, how are the two genes’ alleles linked?
